indecent proposals and unchaste con-
duct toward her. On reaching home
and learning the'cause of the trouble,
Mr.. Fowler talked with the girl, tell
ing her of the great wrong she would
do TO get mad and misrepre'ent her
father in order to get him into trouble,
but she only insisted the more that
he was guilty and that ho should be
punished. On Friday the girl ac-
companied by Mr.. S. S. Croft went
to Esq, Jennings, and procured writ.
Saturday 4 Shaw Dalton was prompt
ly arrested by the Sheriff of Caldwell
county and lodged in the Princeton
Jail. This preliminary trial was set for
Monday, but Sunday evening the girl
suddenly and mistcriously disappear
cd and 1t was conjectured that the
girl had misrepresented her father
and had skipped out. But later in
vestigationsshow that the girls moth
er realizing the snap that her husband
was getting in had transferred the
girl to Mr.. Jas. Whites, near Croftoh.
Mr. White says the girl and her
brother arrived at his house late at
night and that the girl stood in the
door aud wept all night and begged
Mr.. White to take her to Princeton.
Mr.. " hile informed the officials at
Princeton Of her whereabouts and
she was conducted to Princeton yes
terday. Mr.. White told me to-day
that Dalton confessed his guilt and
was returned to his cell to await the
action Of the grand jury. Dalton is
about 80 years of age, medium size
aud the shape Of his head and neck,
the cut of his eye and general appear
ance indicate anything more than a
gentleman. lie lived just across the
Caldwell county line, your cores
pondent knew him well, has often
pictured him as a cowardlY brute
and demon, but it is hard to believe
the report that lie had attempted to
outrage his daughter, a rather timid
ulassuming little lass of IA ; she says
this is not his first attempt by any
means. Parental Interference has
evidently kept back all complaint
until the demon came so near accom-
plishing his desires that she was
forced to call upon her neighbors aud
the law to protect her.
Mr.. Clarence Nicholas died very
suddenly about two weeks ago of a
congestive chill, just week later his
brother Wright died after having
,hree congestive chills. The former
was l6 the latter is years of age.
